鞾鞋 (The upper character is pronounced with the fanqie [酉*(囗@ㄨ)] + 禾 [xuē]. It is barbarian clothing. The Guangya calls it jiasha [甲沙], or calls it qiaokua [𩌈䩲]; these are varying dialect terms of the barbarians. The Jixun writes it as 鞾. The Zilin writes it as 靴 with 化; these are both vulgar forms. The Kaosheng properly writes it as [尸@秝], taking an abbreviated 履 with 禾 as its phonetic component. The Shuowen lacks this character. Various character dictionaries do not have this rhyming binome. The Yunquan says: "It is footwear with a neck; it also belongs to the category of high boots [𨌆履]." It was originally the apparel of foreign barbarians. From the Jin and Wei dynasties onward, the Central Plains came to value it, and today it is used as official attire.)
